I started up the recipe that I got off of Sweet and Natural’s site with my own little twist — I used 100% dark chocolate cacao powder and chips. I started mixing the batter, which ended up looking like this:

Poured into pans, with a little cupcake to try and make sure it’s edible 😉

Then I placed in the oven, with my own little cupcake:

They came out looking great (ignore the messy stove)!

Up close, you can see the carrot shreds!

And here is the frosting I made (in my blender, required a lot of spoon and finger licking :D):

And the finished product!

How great? The frosting was a little runny, but oh well. It tasted amazing.

And here is lunch, lol:

Nutrition Facts:

Wow! Pretty high in calories 😉 That is for 1/12 of the cake. I am pretty sure my little serving was maybe 1/2-3/4 of that, so I’ll just guesstimate around 300 for my cupcake. But I probably ate 100 calories of frosting. Maybe. Haha!

I also thought I’d share a picture of Rexi and Zelda. Ignore Zelda’s demon eyes!

Unfortunately after this picture was taken, Zelda peed on the dog’s bed AGAIN. I don’t know what to do about this 😦

Have a great day ladies! I am sore, so I need to figure out what I’m going to do today to be active. I may just relax seeing as how I have to work all night again!
